In order to use the API's protected endpoints, a new session MUST be established for the service consumer. To do this, a valid Api-Key in the HTTP request headers together with the data type: session in the JSON request body MUST be sent. Here the API remote service is attacked by trying to sent a random Api-Key in the HTTP request headers.
The errors status: 403 is returned from the remote service together with the errors detail: Unknown Api-Key. in the JSON response body.
